Beirut - The Flying Club Cup Lyrics
Beirut - Nantes Lyrics
Well, it's been a long time, long time now
Since I've seen you smile
And I'll gamble away my fright
And I'll gamble away my time
Beirut - A Sunday Smile Lyrics
All I wanted is the best for our lives, my dear
And you know my wishes are sincere
What's to say for the days I cannot bare
Beirut - Cliquot Lyrics
A plague in the workhouse, a plague on the poor now
I feed on my drum 'til I'm dead
Yesterday fever, tomorrow St. Peter
I'll feed on my drum until then
Beirut - The Penalty Lyrics
Like an ancient day and I'm on trial
Let them seize the way, this once was an island
And I could not stay for I believed them
Left for the lights, always in season
Beirut - In The Mausoleum Lyrics
Time travels to mourn
Your secret life
In your mausoleum
Beirut - Cherbourg Lyrics
And a fall from here
Is a long way down
I've found a better way out
Beirut - The Flying Club Cup Lyrics
I built my house of reeds upon a marsh in Elise
My father was released a day's walk from San Denise
We buried him beneath the bone white sands of San Denise
